Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.
Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Some Tools to Test Your Website on Mobile Devices
1. Some Tools to Test Your
Website on Mobile Devices
With the arrival of the smartphones in the market, users of the handheld devices have
a big say in general upon the viewership of a website. And it is predictable to boost
with the passage of time and that the mobile internet users are all set to have a greater
share in the website usage compared their laptop and desktop equivalents.
Rise of Mobile Friendly Websites:
The time has come that you cannot ignore the rising mobile users especially while you
are considering hiring PHP programmers for your website. The onus is thus shifting to
the mobile-friendly websites. And in such a scenario, to make your website mobile-
friendly is of prime importance and for that you need to test it for different
smartphone and other handheld devices’ platforms.
Use of Mobile Phone Emulators:
Prior to designing and making your website mobile-friendly, it is imperative to test it
using a good mobile phone emulator to test the responsiveness and functionality of the
mobile websites across different mobile platforms such as iPhone, Android,
BlackBerry, iPad etc. These tools identify the probable issues and find out problems by
way of offering virtual mobile interface, making it easier for you to make necessary
changes before launching your website.
There are many mobile phone emulators available in the market. Let’s see some of the
more popular ones:
iPhone Tester:
iPhone Tester is one of the most favourite emulators which tests the compatibility of a
website on the iOS. Simply enter the URL of the website you want to test into the
search box to get an immediate preview of the site and its performance on iOS.
Responsivepx:
To cater to the rising demands of responsive website design – the most recent
buzzword among the developers today – this emulator is specifically designed to test
the responsiveness of the website design under examination. Select between multiple
screen sizes to test all the functionalities of the website and user experience across
dissimilar mobile phone devices.
Opera Mini Simulator:
Opera Mini is one of the most widely used mobile web browsers and therefore it is
sensible to test the compatibility of the websites using Opera Mini Simulator to cater to
a greater user base of this browser. Test the website under review and make required
design changes if any.
2. You can use any of the above mentioned emulators to test your mobile website.
Kristina is a software engineer and a freelance writer specializing in usability and front-
end technologies. She is focusing on PHP programming and development.. In the current
article, she shares her insights about the use of mobile emulators and suggests that one
can hire PHP programmer for accurate results.
